Funny you mention this :) All other users want w3af to be FASTER ! :)
At this point, it's NOT possible to do request throttling in w3af,
BUT there are a couple of things you might try:
* Lower maxThreads in misc-settings
* Edit the callBeforeSend function inside
"core/data/url/xUrllib.py", by adding time.sleep(0.02) or whatever
time you want to sleep before sending a request.
Let us know how that worked out for you, as we might included into
the mainline version if it works as expected. Thanks!
